The We Love Life Podcast

In this episode of the We Love Life podcast, Daniel and Brian kick things off with some fun Christmas traditions (Nutella hot chocolate, real trees only, Jesse tree, China Fun Day 😂) and then dive into the deeper story of Advent in a world marked by a culture of death. They look at Joseph’s courage, the role of fathers, and how the Bible uses the same word (brephos) for the baby in Elizabeth’s womb and the baby in the manger – showing God’s heart for life both inside and outside the womb.
You’ll hear a hopeful reminder that Jesus didn’t just come 2,000 years ago – He still brings healing, restoration, and life into broken families, strained relationships, and the heaviness many feel during the holidays. The episode ends with a prayer over you and your family for this Advent and Christmas season.

In this Thanksgiving episode of the We Love Life Podcast, Daniel and Brian talk honestly about gratitude in the midst of a heavy and difficult ministry. From standing on the sidewalk, to leading prayer walks, to watching God save lives and change hearts, they share how a thankful heart can lift you above the weight of the battle and help you stay faithful.
Daniel opens up about a morning when he woke up feeling under it and how God used prayer and His Word to shift his heart. Brian shares scriptures that command us to give thanks and reminds us that our greatest need was met at the cross. Together they talk about the importance of fixing our eyes on what God has done, celebrating answered prayer, and refusing to let negativity or the algorithms of social media shape our outlook.
If you need encouragement, if you feel the heaviness of this work, or if you simply want to grow in thankfulness, this episode will bless you. Happy Thanksgiving from the We Love Life family. We are grateful for you.

In this episode of the We Love Life Podcast, Daniel sits down with longtime friend and colleague Vicky Kaseorg, our National Sidewalk Outreach Director, to talk about what it really looks like to stand firm through challenges when you are on the front lines for the unborn.
Vicky shares how God carried her through melanoma and breast cancer while she continued to serve on the sidewalk, and how that season became a turning point in her walk with the Lord. She also talks about a recent trip to Fayetteville, North Carolina, where a struggling team saw a huge breakthrough and multiple babies saved after some simple encouragement and training.
Together, Daniel and Vicky dig into
Why spiritual warfare often intensifies when you are exactly where God wants you
How to stay rooted in Scripture and prayer when everything around you is shaking
The difference between wisely stepping back for a season and giving up when things get hard
Practical ways to “debrief with Jesus” after heavy days on the sidewalk

In this episode of the We Love Life Podcast, Daniel Parks and Brian Ottinger sit down with Luke Pierson, Discipleship Pastor at Apologia Church and co-founder of End Abortion Now. Together, they dive deep into biblical manhood, the crisis of weak men and weak preaching, and how reclaiming God’s design for men is key to ending abortion.
Luke unpacks the Four Ps of godly leadership—prophet, priest, protector, provider—and shares how men can lead their homes through prayer, scripture, and accountability. The conversation gets real about issues like pornography, victim mentality, feminism’s impact on the church, and the need for bold, uncompromising preaching that calls men to repentance and action.
